9th Annual Membership Drive 2024
The 9th Annual Membership Drive
We take a great deal of pride in our community and the wonderful people who live, work and play here. Buying a membership is a small act that supports the human element of the neighbourhood. Every year our volunteer board puts in 100’s of hours working to advocate for residents, build community and encourage connections.
Submit your business for the North Haven Business Directory.
This directory is intended to encourage the micro economy of North Haven and promote valuable connections within the community. Entry is available to any resident entrepreneur, home based, direct sales, consultant, remote, or store front business with valid NHCA membership. Own and operate a business that is not directly located in our community? We want you too!
Sign Up For Community Updates!
By signing up for email updates from NHCA you will automatically get an additional entry in the Membership Matters Raffle. We promise not to send email more than once per month and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Sign up and never miss out on awesomeness happening right in your own neighbourhood!

VENDORS JOINING US FOR BREW HAVEN 2024
In 2017, we quit our jobs to do something we’ve been dreaming about for the better part of a decade; start a brewery. We named ours Best of Kin as a tribute to our father who we lost too soon. Our goals are simple: make the best damn beer we possibly can, so we can share it with the ones we love and raise a glass to the ones we’ve lost. We hope you’ll enjoy a pint with us soon.
Our Mission: We make beers that we want to drink. No corners cut, and no compromise made. We serve it to you because we are intensely proud of it ourselves.
byHendo prides itself in producing real juice cocktails over multiple platforms. From On Tap to Canned Cocktails,
we have something for everyone!
From ice skates to booze in 5 generations.
Life is an adventure. Abraham Lincoln was the US President when Starr began in 1861. Canada would be ‘founded’ 6 years later. The Starr name pays homage to The Starr Manufacturing Co. which gained early fame by inventing the modern ice skate in the 1860’s. Our family business went from making some 11 million pairs of skates (1861-1939) to wartime supply (twice) to forging industrial components over 150 years. As globalization shifted manufacturing out-of-country the business eventually ceased operations and closed in 1998. In a symbolic gesture, Mike (5th generation) bought the business from his father in 2015 for one dollar and set out to reinvent Starr.
At the heart of SunnyCider is community. That powerful sense of belonging and connection when neighbours share and enjoy life together. A community built on generosity and inclusion. Where everyone has a seat at the table and is invited to feast on the fruits of each other's labours invited to feast on the fruits of each other's labour.
